MSI today launched five new F-series laptops in India. The MSI FX400, FX600, FX700, and FR600 laptops are stylish, have latest Intel Core processor, Nvidia graphics, and high-quality onboard sound from Dynaudio.

The MSI FX400, FX600, FX700, and FR600 range from 14-inch to 17-inch screen sizes and are equipped with latest Intel Core i5 processor (with Intel Turbo Boost and HyperThreading support). To offer a better-than-average audio experience, the MSI F-series laptops come with Dynaudio speakers -- seen previously on the MSI GT660 we reviewed -- and also incorporate THX audio-visual technology. MSI claims the new F-series of laptops look more stylish than MSI's C-series of laptops -- the MSI CX420, for example.

The new MSI F-series laptops also come with Intel's WiDi wireless display technology -- it lets you send data from your laptop to your TV. You can watch videos, photos, music from your laptop on to a WiDi-supported TV.

These laptop models also have MSI's own GPU Boost technology with automatic graphics switching mode, MSI said. These new MSI F-series laptops also come with MSI's ECO engine power saving technology with five power management modes -- gaming, movie, presentation, office and turbo battery.

MSI F-series laptops have two DDR3 RAM slots. The MSI FX400, for instance, comes with a 1.3 megapixel webcam, while other MSI F-series laptops are equipped with high-definition HD 720p webcam for enhanced image quality. Large-capacity 250GB-500GB hard drives are also available on the F-series laptops from MSI.
